Montée connue des Stéphanois, elle relie Saint-Etienne à l'Ardèche. Beaucoup de circulation à certains moments de la journée.
Pour ce qui est de l'ascension en elle-même, elle offre dès la sortie du rond-point "vélocio" une rampe à 7%, cela ne vas pas beaucoup diminuer jusqu'à Planfoy. Ensuite la route s'applanie jusqu'à trouver la forêt dans les deux derniers kilomètres.
